thanks buddy!

Not necessarily accurate. It's only available for pre-order for existing customers. It will be publicly announced (and probably available?) in a few weeks.

My apologies, I did not know that.

Shall I edit/delete my post?

Nah.

OK then, I will try and be more careful next time. All the excitement just got the better of me...

My wife had it all planned. She knew it was arriving (I didn't) and surprised me. Part of the surprise was to take the kids out to play for a couple of hours so I could play with the new toy. She was just as excited as I was!

Thanks for the Pics. I was toying with the idea of ordering another M80 for my center. I may have to pull the trigger on this pre-order. I would have to build a shelf, but that should be too hard. My M150's are on a bracket today. Hmmmm....

Thanks for the excellent review Steve. Now the torturing wait starts.

Spoke to Brent this morning and he states that the vp150 would not pair well with the vp180 because the vp180 would just blow away the vp150 volume wise and that the vp180 can stand on its own and does not need a companion, so it seems like the best option will be to wait until June 1st and preorder is over and then order the vp180 on the trade up program.

I think I will mount the plasma tv on the wall and then place the vp180 on the tv table I have, or I could order the vp180 stand on preorder if it seems like a dedicated stand would be a better option.

This is all very exciting! Especially with the big green light from Steve, I feel confident this will put my system into a further, and probably final, level of refinement, for the foreseeable future (i.e., ultimate nirvana unless I should unexpectedly become a billionaire). I've been thinking so much lately about how I could possibly improve the center channel and this seems like it will resolve my only remaining issue, cool beans!

I approve of your decision.
